Isn't your life worth more than the few dollars you'll save by buying
altered or counterfeit head protection? Read the real stories to the
left and below about the accidents that two loggers had wearing Genuine
Skull Bucket Hard Hats. Would a cheap knock-off have saved their lives?
Only "Skull
Bucket" aluminum hard hats are proven
and tested to be ANSI
compliant and OSHA approved. There are imitators selling altered "Skull
Bucket" hats under other brand names. The etched on "Skull Bucket" name
may have been ground off the brim and another name applied. They may
have dangerous safety issues and may subject the user to serious injury
or death. Insist on "Skull Bucket" hard hats for your ultimate safety
and reliability. There may also be "Skull Bucket" knock-offs on
the market that do not meet our rigid standards for safety. Protect your
well being and your life. Always buy from an
authorized
distributor listed on
this site or call us if you're not sure if the hats you are buying are
true "Skull Bucket" hats.
We are working with the
Consumer Safety Products Commission, OSHA, ANSI, Federal Trade
Commission, Dept. of Justice, and the Wisconsin Attorney General's
Office to recall any altered hard hats or Skull Bucket knock-offs and
prosecute the sellers for false advertising, failing to heed safety
warnings, and for knowingly continuing to sell potentially deadly
products.

"Original Manufacturer"
false claims
Emails have been sent out by
someone (from China) claiming to be the "...original
aluminum hard hats producer! The only manufacturer!" They
claim to be able to sell the hard hats at very low prices. They claim
the hats to be "our
patent products" (NOT
TRUE!). They claim the
hats "Match
to ANSI Z89.1-2003 TYPE I -CLASS C & G". (NOT
TRUE! Class G is an ANSI
rating that requires the hat to "withstand 2200 volts AC 60 Hertz for 3
minutes. Leakage shall not exceed 3 milliamperes." Obviously, aluminum
hard hats can not meet this ANSI requirement and are exempt from this
requirement. You'd think the manufacturer would know this. They
have also used our photos without permission. BE
WARNED: Our
hard hats are tested to meet ANSI safety standards by an independent US
testing laboratory that is approved for ANSI testing. Hats not properly
safety tested that later fail to comply and result in injury or death to
the wearer could result in stiff penalties and fines imposed by a jury
in a court of law. Trying to locate and get reimbursement from someone
in China is pretty slim. Skull
Bucket hard hats
sold to dealers and individuals by Cricorp are
the only aluminum hard
hats to meet the proper
safety requirements! Everyone knows of China's reputation of selling
inferior and dangerous products. Cricorp provides
the safety net to protect consumers. BE
SAFE. Buy only from Cricorp or
our authorized dealers.
